Data Sheet

The Viavi Solutions MA OTDR module provides technicians with the ideal test tool for characterizing various access and metro network architectures, such as CWDM, wireless backhaul, and FTTx.

The MA OTDR module meets the challenges of commissioning a complete metro ring, troubleshooting a bend in a distribution frame, or qualifying high-port-count optical splitters in passive optical networks (PON). Its impressive technical specifications combined with a wide range of test functions give technicians with the best solution to more efficiently deploy or repair fiber links in the field.

The MA module’s optical performance combined with the complete T-BERD/MTS platform suite ensures testing is done right—the first time.

Standard test features include:

y Automatic macrobend detection

y Summary results table with pass/fail analysis

y Bidirectional OTDR analysis

y FastReport onboard report generation
